EEE-FK1A472AM Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The EEE-FK1A472AM is a 4700 µF, 10 V aluminum electrolytic capacitor in surface mount radial can package manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components. This component is rated for automotive applications with AEC-Q200 compliance and designed for high-temperature operation up to 105°C with a 5000-hour lifetime rating. The part is actively produced and stocked, with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1).

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility are maintained across the specified parameters: capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, operating temperature range, lifetime rating, physical dimensions, mounting type, and compliance certifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts are classified into two categories based on electrical and mechanical parameter alignment:

Upgrade Substitutes (Direct Replacement): EEV-FK1A472M and EEV-FK1A472V maintain identical capacitance (4700 µF), voltage rating (10 V), tolerance (±20%), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C), lifetime rating (5000 Hrs @ 105°C), physical dimensions (0.630" Dia × 0.669" Height), and compliance certifications (AEC-Q200, ROHS3). These parts are manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components within the same FK series family and are functionally interchangeable with the main part.

Similar Substitute (Cross-Manufacturer): AFK478M10P44T-F is manufactured by Cornell Dubilier Electronics (CDE) and matches all critical electrical parameters: capacitance (4700 µF), voltage rating (10 V), tolerance (±20%), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C), lifetime rating (5000 Hrs @ 105°C), and compliance certifications (AEC-Q200, ROHS3). Physical dimensions are equivalent (0.630" Dia × 0.669" Height) with a minor variation in surface mount land size width (0.748" W vs. 0.669" W). This part is suitable for applications where cross-manufacturer sourcing is acceptable.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain active product status and full compliance with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and ROHS3 environmental standards, ensuring regulatory and quality requirements are met for automotive applications.

EEV-FK1A472M and EEV-FK1A472V are preferred substitutes when Panasonic sourcing is required or specified. Both parts are manufactured within the same FK series and provide identical electrical and mechanical compatibility. EEV-FK1A472V includes anti-vibration series designation, suitable for applications with mechanical stress requirements.

AFK478M10P44T-F is a cross-manufacturer alternative from Cornell Dubilier Electronics. This part meets all electrical specifications and maintains equivalent physical dimensions. The surface mount land size width variation (0.748" vs. 0.669") requires PCB layout verification to ensure compatibility with existing footprints. This option is suitable for applications where multi-source qualification is established.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can EEV-FK1A472M and EEV-FK1A472V be used interchangeably with EEE-FK1A472AM?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical capacitance (4700 µF), voltage rating (10 V), tolerance (±20%), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 105°C), lifetime rating (5000 Hrs @ 105°C), physical dimensions, and AEC-Q200 compliance. EEV-FK1A472V includes anti-vibration characteristics for enhanced mechanical stability.

Q: What is the difference between the Panasonic FK and EV series designations?

A: The provided data indicates both EEE-FK and EEV-FK are active Panasonic series. Series designation differences are not specified in the technical parameters provided. Consult manufacturer documentation for series-specific performance characteristics.

Q: Is AFK478M10P44T-F a direct replacement for EEE-FK1A472AM?

A: AFK478M10P44T-F matches all electrical specifications and maintains equivalent physical dimensions. However, the surface mount land size width is 0.748" compared to 0.669" for the main part. PCB layout compatibility must be verified before implementation in existing designs.

Q: Are all substitute parts suitable for automotive applications?

A: Yes. All listed parts carry AEC-Q200 qualification and are specified for automotive applications, meeting automotive industry reliability and quality standards.

Q: What is the significance of the anti-vibration designation on EEV-FK1A472V?

A: The anti-vibration series designation indicates enhanced mechanical stability characteristics. This feature is beneficial in applications subject to vibration or mechanical stress. Selection depends on specific application requirements.

Q: Do all parts have the same ripple current ratings?

A: Ripple current specifications vary slightly. EEE-FK1A472AM and EEV-FK1A472V specify 1.8 A @ 100 kHz, while EEV-FK1A472M specifies 1.69 A @ 100 kHz. All parts meet the 1.35 A @ 120 Hz low-frequency requirement. Application ripple current requirements determine suitability.
